Christmas in Ghana

Thank you to everyone who was praying for the Praise and Worship Night, it was awesome. We had a big turnout and a lot of youth showed up. It was an outdoor event filled with singing, dancing, and hearts opened to the Lord. Worshiping under the African night sky, singing alongside the gospel choir was very cool.

Christmas is almost here! I am glad to hear that the Living Christmas Tree went well at LifePoint Church in Banning, CA where I attend. I’ll be honest it has been a little weird not seeing the Living Christmas Tree performance this year. I don’t know exactly when the Living Christmas Tree was started, but I don’t remember ever not going to it. (Your dad is Pastor Jordan, of course you go~editor)

It’s cool though,​I am getting to celebrate Christmas in a way I have never celebrated before. This last week at Christian Life Mission Church was Children’s Church, where the kids recited verses, answered bible trivia, acted biblical scenes, raced to find verses, and some memorized all the books of the bible. I was very impressed with their knowledge of the bible. Next week we have a Christmas Eve and Christmas Day services that I am looking forward to. Unfortunately, with a Christmas Day forecast of 93 degrees and 75% humidity I will not be expecting snow. Celebrating the holidays away from family and friends has been very tough. I miss so much from back home, and changing the way I have celebrated Christmas the last 25 years has been weird. Thankfully for myself, and all of us who are celebrating Christmas, no matter where we will be celebrating the birth of Jesus this year we will still be celebrating!
